I agree - as Andrew suggested, it would probably be better if the What's
New? list for 2.6 was a bit more like the 2.5 list:
http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5/

That actually rewrites the URL to the URL for the current docs (removing
the 'dev' part):
http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/whatsnew25.html

The name was changed in the move to Sphinx for the docs - it's at:
http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/2.6.html

(Unlike the old What's New directory, or the current library directory
and so forth, that directory doesn't have an index entry defined, so
simply leaving out the file name detail doesn't currently do the right
thing - you get the directory listing instead of the what's new doco)

Cheers,
Nick.
